Sale is for three (3) speakers
Only 250pcs made worldwide.
I purchased these speakers from the forum around 4 years ago and fair to say they exceeded my expectations. They fit perfectly into my room and by the time I replaced them I had many great experiences with them. I doubt you could find better value in the market for some kick ass Home theatre speakers, the THX ULTRA specification really does mean something with these, they perform at a very high level.
I'll start off by saying these are not "bright" speakers, they put out exactly what is put in and along with Dirac and my two Rel subwoofers they sounded amazing to my ears, I've only replaced them because I am leaning back towards 2ch stereo music now so needed more of a hybrid speaker to swing between HT and Music. That said 5.1 surround sound and concerts sounded bloody impressive with these!
If you have a room that can accommodate them you will be very happy with these sitting up front, once you've had matching LCR speakers there really is no turning back, the sound field goes to a new level completely. Unfortunately I can't demo, they are no longer connected to my system.
OVERALL CONDITION
Speakers and grills in overall great condition, there is some scuffing here and there but as you can see in the photos they present well, they spent most of their time with me housed in a baffle wall.
SPEAKER REPAIR
About 3.5 years ago I had an accidental volume spike with two of the speakers, I took the speakers to Queensland Speaker Repairs and he tested them thoroughly. All tweeters and woofers were tested. The tweeters were found to be fine, but he found that on one of the woofers the voice coil was deformed, so he replaced it. You can see there is a small amount of glue residue on the repaired speaker. I had full intention to replace the woofer with a genuine M&K Woofer if I could hear anything, but I never could so I didn't. The replacement cost at the time was $395.00.
As you can see by my price, this has been factored into the asking price.
BI-WIRE CABLES
These have been upgrade by the previous owner with ATLAS plugs and sliver wire, note that one of the plastic surrounds was missing when I took ownership.
SHIPPING
I have the boxes that the speakers came to me from Victoria in, original foam inserts but not original boxes. If you are interested in shipping touch base and will confirm sizes and weights. Responsibility of the shipment will be with the buyer.

### Typical Price Range and Condition Variations
- New condition: AUD 3,300–5,000 per speaker. This aligns with Australian retail for comparable standard S150 THX Ultra models (e.g., AUD 3,299) and reflects the Limited Edition's premium space gray finish and 250-unit production cap.
- Used/pre-loved condition: AUD 2,000–3,500 per speaker. A pre-loved standard S150 pack (likely 3 speakers + sub) lists at AUD 3,000, suggesting ~AUD 800–1,000 per speaker, but the Limited Edition commands a 20–50% premium due to rarity. A clearance listing for a Limited Edition right/centre model at AUD 799 (original higher) indicates aggressive used pricing for specific variants.
| Condition | Estimated AUD Range (per speaker) | Key Examples |
|-----------|----------------------------------|--------------|
| New | 3,300–5,000 | Standard S150 at AUD 3,299; Limited Edition premium inferred from specs |
| Used | 2,000–3,500 | Pre-loved pack implies ~AUD 1,000/unit; Limited Edition outlier at AUD 799 |
### Key Factors Affecting Value
- Edition rarity: Limited to 250 pieces with unique space gray finish and matching grill, increasing desirability over standard black satin S150.
- Condition and accessories: New retains full warranty and pristine cosmetics; used depreciates 20–40% but varies by usage, boxes, and grills.
- Market and location: Australian listings dominate (e.g., Brisbane HiFi, Audio Tailor), with home cinema demand boosting THX Ultra certified value. Bundles inflate per-unit perception.
- Age and updates: Recent redesign with upgraded woofers, tweeters, and crossovers supports stable pricing despite 2026 date.
- Demand drivers: Professional studio/hi-fi appeal for accurate sound (92 dB sensitivity, 75 Hz–20 kHz response) limits supply.
Estimates are conservative, derived from 2026 Australian listings; actual sales may vary by negotiation or global import costs.
